Subject: "Turn-On"

Written By: woops on 10/04/09 at 4:59 pm

Have anybody seen the the fiasco called "Turn-On" that only aired for about 10 minutes until ABC network pulled it in 1969?



Though from info, most of the content was too edgy (most tame by today's standards) and was basically a rip-off of "Laugh In".

I didn't see that show, but after reading what they did on it I would have been a loyal fan of it!

Tim Conway (who was once on a Local TV Show in Cleveland) was on Turn-On that night...even his hometown affiliate wouldn't even play the entire show!

The GM of WEWS (Cleveland's ABC Affiliate and Conway's Home Town) said this....

"If you naughty little boys have to write dirty words on the walls, please don't use our walls."
